Hello I just bought a custom extended cab 69 c10. I am going to be putting on a c20 long horn Chassis. What I need to know it what are the cab to center of rear axle measurements. I would like them for the short bed long bed and the long horn bed... I posted in a bunch of FB pages but no one has been able to get me these.

That is probably because nobody ever uses those measurements. The overall wheel base is always used. Maybe you already know the different wheel bases but I will post them for others.

Short bed - 115"
Long bed - 127"
Longhorn - 133"
Short cab and chassis - 133"
Long cab & chassis - 157"

For 115 WB truck, back of standard cab to rear axle CL = 42"
For 127 WB truck, back of standard cab to rear axle CL = 54"
For 133 WB truck, back of standard cab to rear axle CL = 60"
Formula = (WB-73")

Truth. I like Facebook for some things, but finding out REAL information about something, nothing beats the message board community.
